Creating New Youth Social Entrepreneurial Ventures
The goal of YSESD is to establish an international network of youth social entrepreneurs who will benefit from a “talent platform”.
Here they will be able to:
- exchange ideas about potential or established social entrepreneurial ventures with colleagues,
- receive mentoring from successful social entrepreneurs,
- and pitch their projects to potential investors through “youth social entrepreneurial ventures competitions”.
All YSESD social enterprises are intended to make a significant contribution to the society or environment in which they operate.
YSESD completed Phase 1 of the project. Forty social entrepreneurs from Iraq, Pakistan and Turkey attended a 4-month long series of workshops,
which was held between December 2020 and March 2021.
At present, these alumni and new participants are working to develop Phase 2 of the project in 2022.
Thematic Focus:
• Civic Engagement and Leadership
• Gender Empowerment
• Environmental Sustainability
• Public Health
• Energy and Climate Change
YSESD Workshops:
Administered by Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA, together with Migport social enterprise, with support provided by the Hollings Center for International Dialogue.
